YSL Take My Red Away (120) Rouge Volupte Shine Oil-in-Stick ($38.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a medium-dark, poppy red with warm undertones and barely-there, golden pearl throughout the luminous finish. The texture was smooth, creamy, and moderately emollient without being heavy, so it was comfortable to apply but could easily be over-applied as it glided so readily across my lips.

It had medium to semi-opaque color payoff in a single layer, which was as described, and the color applied evenly on my lips and didn't emphasize my lip texture or lip lines. The color lasted well for four hours and felt lightly hydrating over time.
